Synopsis

NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERYOU’VE BEEN LIED TO BY THE GOVERNMENTWe shrug off this fact as an unfortunate reality. America is the land of the free, after all. Does it really matter whether our politicians bend the truth here and there?When the truth is traded for lies, our freedoms are diminished and don’t return.In Lies the Government Told You, Judge Andrew P. Napolitano reveals how America’s freedom, as guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution, has been forfeited by a government more protective of its own power than its obligations to preserve our individual liberties. “Judge Napolitano’s tremendous knowledge of American law, history, and politics, as well as his passion for freedom, shines through in Lies the Government Told You, as he details how throughout American history, politicians and government officials have betrayed the ideals of personal liberty and limited government."—Congressman Ron Paul, M.D. (R-TX), from the Foreword

Goodreads review by Pierre on April 23, 2010

I give major pro......more

My father-in-law will be proud. After nearly a decade, I’ve finally read this book, and I thought it was pretty good. I do not agree with all of his points. I assumed because he was on Fox News that he was just a typical Republican. But no. He goes after Republicans and democrats with nearly equal s......more

Goodreads review by Ailith on April 18, 2018

"The government has a long (its entire?) history of capitulating to the rich, the aristocratic, the slavers and the multination corporations and monopolies!" Yes, yes it does. "Get rid of the government!" Oh. . for fuck's sake. No. We need democracy, not to replace corporate inverted totalitarianism (c......more

Goodreads review by Bryan on May 04, 2019

I don't know if "I liked it" is the correct way to respond to a book of this nature. The information is good, but very disheartening. There is little to enjoy, but it is important to make much of this information available. The author shows how the federal government, from almost the beginning, has......more
